This is Fruitycake. When I was a stray dog, and it rained in that Florida place, it was terrible. And it rained a lot. I didn’t have a home to go to. And I didn’t have a bed. I didn’t have a dry place to go to that was mine.
I try not to think about those days. But it does still stay with me.
Bad things that happen to you can be overcome. But you truly never forget.
No. I don’t like water very much. I know I need it. I know I’m safe now. But that doesn’t mean I want to get wet.
I have a hard time even drinking water. So when a storm came last night and the persons were very worried about it, I was too. Now my stomach is making noises. Because I don’t want to go out there until it dries off. I think worrying about it is worse than doing it sometimes.
Is there a storm outside that you try to avoid?
Sometimes, facing our fears can help us heal. Like when I am on a boat, or a kayak or a paddle board, I feel strong. Like I’ve risen above my fear. And I actually enjoy the ride.
If I can overcome my fear in that way, I know you can overcome your fear in your way too.
